Comments
At the top of the ridge there was a surface wind crust that made some turns a bit tricky in the alpine. Softer snow in the trees made for some decent glade turns.
Skiing back down the hiking trail was hard packed with some patches of ice. With the lack of new snow the narrow trail on the way down had quite a few branches and roots sticking out so be careful on your decent.
Overall the hike up was sunny with no wind, and we saw no other people.
